investment in partnership/LLC (we tax people sometimes call this 'basis')

Thinking of the balance sheet - shouldn't the $24 loss reduce your Investment in this entity asset account? Do you not normally record this on the corp's books?

If you make this entry and adjust your book P&L for real so there is no M-1 adjustment.

The journal entry on the s corp books (isn't it late?) is as follows:

It follows the "Equity method of accounting"

Credit Invest in partnership (asset account)

Debit loss on Investment (P and L account)

I agree with southpark. There's no need to shout at us.

That would be the entry if you followed equity method. It could be that if you have <20% interest and no influence on the entity that you follow cost method as opposed to equity method and have no entry. Then you would have a difference in the investment account for book/tax purposes.
